Flickr user suchy-no-shashin provided the first of what’s to be a weekly feature at Plastic Bamboo, the Sunday Snapshot. Suchy says:

“Shirakawago is a small village in Gifu prefecture in Japan. The houses are called “gassho-zukuri” as they look like two hands in prayer. When we visited they had over 3 meters of snow. The village also looks amazing in the summer.

This shot was taken from a viewpoint overlooking the village.”

We’re going to feature a photo from Japan every single week, so if you live there, been there on holiday, met someone who had a brother who watched Spirited Away on TV once, then please stick your photo or link in an email and send it to stuart [at] plasticbamboo.com. Remember to include a link to your site, blog, flickr/myspace page, whatever, so we can credit you in some way. Thanks!
